Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives (Michael Newton's Journey of Souls Book 1)

by Michael Newton

Dr. N: Since guides seem to have different approaches to teaching, what do they all have in common? S: They wouldn’t be teachers if they didn’t have a love of training and a desire to help us join them. Dr. N: Then define for me why souls are selected as guides. Take a typical guide and tell me what qualities that advanced soul possesses. S: They must be compassionate without being too easy on you. They aren’t judgmental. You don’t have to do things their way. They don’t restrain by imposing their values on you. Dr. N: Okay, those are things guides don’t do. If they don’t over-direct souls, what are the important things they do, as you see it? S: Uh … they build morale in their sections and instill confidence— we all know they have been through a lot themselves. We are accepted for who we are as individuals with the right to make our own mistakes. Dr. N: I must say, I have found souls very loyal to their guides. S: That’s why—because they never give up on you. Dr. N: What would you say is the most important attribute of any guide? S: (without hesitation) The ability to motivate you and instill courage.
